The minister of Internal Affairs, Maj Gen (Rtd) Kahinda Otafiire, last week criticized Gender minister Betty Amongi, calling her a political failure undeserving of further support as a member of parliament.
Earlier this year, Amongi, the opposition Uganda People’s Congress (UPC) representative and current Oyam South MP declared her intention to contest for the Lira City Woman MP seat in the 2026 elections.
Her announcement signals a direct challenge to Dr Jane Ruth Aceng, the incumbent Lira City Woman MP and minister of health.
This has intensified political rivalry between the two leaders, both of whom enjoy considerable support in the Lango sub-region.Ugandan travel guides
Last weekend, Otafiire joined other MPs in Lira for the Lira City Boda-Boda Festival, organized by Aceng in collaboration with the Lira United Motorcycle Association (LUMBA).
Speaking at the event, Otafiire criticized Amongi for allegedly neglecting her current constituency in Oyam and questioned her motivation to contest in Lira City.
